The Louvre in Abu Dhabi
Dubai, United Arab Emirates, May 2018 – After years of construction the Louvre in Abu Dhabi was inaugurated in November 2017. In order to keep your visit as pleasant as possible and the antique work of art well-tempered in perfect atmospheric humidity so it will remain for the next generations, uninterrupted power supply is crucial.
Designed as a seemingly floating dome having a honeycomb structure and a dense network of corridors and channels which draw the water of the Persic Gulf it is meant to represent “rays of sunlight passing through date palm fronds in an oasis”. In the inside you can find great masterpieces such as “La Belle Ferronière” by Leonardo da Vinci or a self-portrait of Vincent van Gogh.
